    Hey I'm about to lift my 2013 tss 4x4 tacoma. I'm going with a 3.5 inch in the front and 1.5 inch add a leaf in the back and will run 295/70r17 nitto trail grapplers. My question is will I rub on my A-arm assembly if i stay with my stock tss wheels? They are the five star design gun metal color aluminum alloy wheels. Any help/advice will be gratly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Not sure about rubbing but I would stay at 3" or below, unless you are planning a DB lift. At 3" you should probably get new UCAs as well.

    Your CVs wont last more then a few months at 3.5. You want to be between 2.5 and 3. And you wont be able to run anything bigger then a 265 on stock rims without rubbing stock UCAs. You could get wheel spacers but then you will rub the Cab mount bad.

    Upper Control Arms. Check out the suspension section; there's tons of info you can research so that you make an informed decision.

    What you research will show is you will want to run a 3 inch coil over kit with 285s. You can replace your Upper control arms or get new rims with a different back spacing.

    Goodluck.:)
